Completed novel: A Captivating Villain [Crime Investigation]
In Cheng Ye's eyes, Qiu Chuyi was a gentle senior from a wealthy family. Well, that was if you could look past the rose-colored glasses of being in love with him.
He was a little white flower, carefully sheltered by his family. To put it plainly, he was the classic naive, sweet, and innocent character from a novel.
Although the two had been ambiguously involved for a while in high school, unfortunately their story ended in tragedy.
Qiu Chuyi ultimately chose to marry a woman,
and rumor had it they married because she was pregnant.
Cheng Ye thought they would never cross paths again, but years later, when they met once more:
One was the captain of the criminal investigation team, temporarily assigned to take charge of this major case; the other was a victim's family member, and quite possibly the mastermind behind the case...
And Qiu Chuyi was no longer the person Cheng Ye remembered
He had become more mature, wise, witty, and refined;
Like the villains in movies and TV shows,
he radiated a dangerous yet captivating charm.

After the TV series Hannibal aired, his daughter pointed at Mads' handsome profile on the screen and chirped, "That's Daddy."
At the time, Qiu Chuyi was helping his wife in the kitchen. He looked at the gleaming, cold blade of the wagyu knife in his hand and suddenly thought
Perhaps the knives in the house ought to be replaced.

Theme: Mutual salvation
I understand that the author wants to write a Mobius strip-style infinite flow, but is the ending a bit rushed? It feels like the two extras are just to make up for the abrupt end of the main text. This kind of ending is really not suitable for a long text. If it is a short story with only the last copy, this kind of ending is not bad, but if you read it from beginning to end in one go, it feels like the climax is being strangled. . I understand the timeline is that Jiang Li appointed his young self to do the task, and then the two met, and then Xiaofeng entered the mission space and pulled Jiang Li in. The two of them finally returned to Jiang Li to designate themselves, which formed a closed loop. But at this point in time, a separate timeline extended to the future is that Jiang Li resurrected Xiao Feng? Since this is the case, why not write about the resurrection? There is a suspicion of fraud. Anyway, I was a little unhappy after reading it. It took a lot of effort to get to this point. In the end, no one died and the original cycle was repeated. Again, this kind of novel with such a long emotional line and a plot line of hundreds of thousands of words is really not suitable for such an abrupt ending. After reading it, you will think what is it doing? Eight hundred thousand words later, go back to the starting point and start over again? I suggest writing an open ending next time:) I really believe it. The previous reply said that I was he. It was the first time I saw this kind of main text and the side story stopped at suffering death. The he was all due to the author commenting that this was he. It was an eye-opener for me. . . And since I've written two extras to make up for it, and I'm afraid people won't understand the explanation, why not write out the official future resurrection timeline? Isn't this the best explanation? Since it is not written, then whether there is resurrection or not, isn't it free to prove it by heart? I even think that I can directly play without cp. The logic of the whole article is indeed rounded, but there is really no sense of fate in the relationship. I guess the author wants to write that they have entered this destined cycle because of their feelings for each other, but the whole article is about the game between various forces. The suspense and foreshadowing are very good, but the description of their two emotional lines is really pale and weak. As a result, even if this emotional fatalism is revealed in the end, there is no particularly strong impact. I hope the author will not be angry when reading this comment. I have no malice. There is nothing to say about the plot of the whole article, but the emotional line is really not as good as no love. It is too difficult to read. I just write about secret love and entanglement repeatedly, but I can't feel the strong sense of fate between them. In the end, I found that the plot is based on their emotional line. Without their desire for each other, these things would not happen. However, this desire is dispensable, coupled with this kind of true and false he (even if you put I accepted he in the extra chapter), I can only say that after reading it, I felt a lot of blood. There is no such pleasure of decryption, only a feeling of depression that the villain also won in the end. (After all, this is a living space. Doesn't the word survival mean who survives to the end and who is the winner? No one is a winner if there is no one.) The ending gave me the feeling that the author didn't want to write the usual cool novels with unlimited flow, but gave a copy like Jiang Xiaofeng the character and strength to be easily beaten. I can only say that it made me misplace my expectations: ( Finally, I still want to ask why he can't be written? Why should the text be marked if it is not included in the entire article? Don't say it for the effect of the ending. If it is really for the effect, the two extra chapters will ruin the effect.
I feel like I was a little more emotional and spoke rudely just now. I want to make up for it. The early plot is still very interesting, but the later emotions didn't keep up with the plot. I'll wait for the revision to see if it will be better (but it has already been revised, right?
The author is so awesome. I feel that all the hidden plots laid out in the front have reasonable explanations. This is the first time I read this kind of open ending. I have read this short sweet story before. I will probably not forget this book for a long time. Finally, the full text is completed and sprinkled with flowers
[Another blind guess] I feel like the killer may have been found by those oriental people from the previous casino.
A blind guess is because of the mission. After all, Jiang as a child probably didn't have anything else to worry about. [I lament that even in the comment area for prize-winning guessing, there are so few people participating, it's too cold QAQ]
Squat, squat, squat, sweet extra!!
I thought that after not logging in for so long, I must have added a lot of new pits, but it turned out that the pits haven't been opened yet?
Just... Wait for the extra episode... Wait for a wb
I would like to ask, who was the person who assigned this order last time? Is it still Jiang? In other words, was it always Jiang who assigned Jiang to kill that person? But in this case, Jiang in the future traveled to the past to assign tasks because Si died, which led to the meeting of Si Jiang in the present. That means there is no future without the present, so the future cannot lead to the present. I want to see how the wife handles this.
The following comments may contain spoilers, please read with caution First of all, congratulations to the author for finishing this book! This book by my wife is the one I have most diligently pursued in JJ, maybe because it is more in line with my current thoughts. The early stages of this book were already fascinating, but the later plot made me even more amazed! It's a book that's really worth reading. Because I have a lot of thoughts, I have divided my comments into several parts, which can also provide you with some additional ideas when reading the book. This is a story of mutual redemption because of love. We readers also follow Jiang Li's experience, experience and feel his growth. The growth here is not only the ability to fight monsters, upgrade and do tasks, but also the ability to love. Secondly, let me talk about my overall impression of this book. The plot setting is reasonable (for example, why Jiang Lai has been unable to identify Si Yufeng's identity, and finally knows the answer to this question in the end), the logic is clear (the main and sub-plots are intertwined and independent, and will not be muddled, very clean and tidy), the story is rich (each copy is valuable and worth reading several times), and the characters are distinct and full of personality (the next part will be my analysis of the main characters in this book, which is really meaningful). This is my wife's first book. I believe that my writing skills will definitely improve a lot. I also wish my wife to be productive and produce more excellent works in the future! Finally, let's briefly analyze our protagonist, Jiang Li. (Because the growth history of this character written by my wife really has many shining points, and there are many things worthy of our readers to learn. But my writing power is limited, so I can only analyze it with simple personal opinions) Because I am more interested in the reasons for the formation of Jiang Li's character, I will explain it in detail. The following will briefly describe the process of Jiang Li slowly learning to love. The whole story revolves around Jiang Li in different periods. The Jiang Li we met at the beginning of the chapter has two distinctive characteristics: 1. He is a professional killer who sees his target rising and falling with a knife (refer to Chapter 9 Killing). 2. "Robots" that only do useful work (refer to Chapter 4 Breaking the Game). This is also his identity before entering the living space. He solves the target neatly and calmly when encountering problems, but he doesn't know how to choose (because when he was in the organization, Jiang Li was used to taking orders from the organization in everything). It can be said that Jiang Li at this time was a standard killing machine, without the ability to think or other emotions. (One more thing to add here. Many readers are asking, why is Jiang Li, as a top killer, a blank slate? Isn't it because his IQ is too low? (For the nature of a blank slate, please refer to Chapter 13 of the Leader) In fact, this is not the case. This is related to the human resources management in the organization. When the killer organization is looking for or training professional killers, what they need most is that the killer does not have his own ideas, only Perform tasks like a robot (if a group of killers with their own ideas get together, they may easily conflict or rebel because of their own interests). The Jiang Lai set by the author here is very consistent with the value of the killer organization, and the author also said that Jiang Lai is not a low IQ, he is just a "killing machine" with no life experience). After going through two dungeons (the first volume of SAW, the second volume of Son of the River), we see that Jiang Li's attitude towards Si Yufeng, whom he is not familiar with yet, is that he does not want to get involved with other people (at this time, our Xiaofeng is still among the others). But from God's perspective, we all know that Jiang Li will be slapped in the face soon. During this period we call him Jiang Li in the ice-breaking stage. I still want to praise the author for handling Jiang Lai's emotional transition very naturally, very delicately and without any abruptness. Before Chapter 10 (Little George), Jiang Li's attitude towards Si Yufeng was still indifferent and he only liked to do tasks by himself. But after seeing Si Yufeng use his wisdom to solve the situation in Chapter 11 (Reverse) and Chapter 12 (Joanna), I still have some new understandings about doing tasks (in fact, the tasks here also enrich life) or life. The cognition here is subtle, slowly permeating (refer to Chapter 35 Breaking the Situation), and finally integrated into Jiang Li's life (this is something very later, please refer to Chapter 142 Fireworks). The author has done a lot of foreshadowing in the ghost kiss volume (the plot is exciting and full!), And finally allows Jiang Lai to tell Xiao Feng, a "stranger" he will soon become familiar with, to protect yourself. This was a breakthrough point. Jiang Li, who was so cold, began to learn to care about others. But three feet of ice does not freeze in one day. Jiang Lai still has a long way to go in how to awaken or learn the ability to love. Now Jiang Li may have some concepts about "love" (love in a broad sense), but there is still a long way to go before he truly internalizes this concept. After going through these three very important copies of Sakurajima, Loser, and Underground, and the author's extensive use of pen and ink to foreshadow it, we also accompany Jiang Li from the stage of "first acquaintance" with love to gradually internalizing it in his heart. Jiang Li began to accept the love of others (Chapter 65: Being Punished), and gradually gained the ability to love (Chapter 73: The Eve). This change is thanks to our Xiaofeng, who used his actions to warm Jiang Li's previously cold heart. (Refer to Chapter 42 Daily Life, Chapter 43 Training, Chapter 94 Suture, etc.) So far we have seen Jiang Li's transformation, which is very exciting progress. But we still don't know why Jiang Li was so cold before. Until Chapter 95 Jiang Ke, the author slowly showed us the reason why Jiang Li became like this. Here I would like to first put forward a concept. Psychoanalytic theory points out that childhood experiences play the most important role in shaping personal development. If trauma is experienced in childhood, it can erode a child's stability and sense of self, diminishing their sense of self-worth, which often stays with the child as they grow into adulthood. This trauma also continues to impact a person's development into adulthood. Unfortunately, our protagonist Jiang Li, like many poor children, has his own tragic childhood experience. Jiang Li's original family relationship is very regretful. Due to the absence of his father and his mother's negligence, Jiang Li suffered a lot of childhood trauma. For example, her mother would always leave the young Jiang Li at home when she started to remember things. As a result, Jiang Li had no memory of his mother's face. Jiang Li could only remember countless scoldings and beatings about his mother (Chapter 95 Jiang Ke). There is also Jiang Hao's father, who has not appeared from the beginning to the end of the book. These traumatic experiences undermined Jiang Li's sense of security and stability as a child and affected the way attachment relationships were formed later in life. He developed a self-protection mechanism, put on protective clothing and looked at his protectors and nurturers, and no longer believed that these people could care about him and ensure his safety. Once the sense of identity in childhood is broken, it takes years of hard work to rebuild these fragments and re-establish trust in others (this is what our other protagonist, Si Yufeng, has to go through~). Now we get the reason for Jiang Li's cold temperament and emotional isolation. In the following article, the author's handling of emotional details is more meticulous, and it is really in place. Jiang Ke is a character who appears in the second half of the book, but her influence on Jiang Li can be said to have started in the first chapter of the book, when the story in our eyes just happened. Through the description of Jiang Ke in Chapter 95, we know that Jiang Li was taken into the organization by Jiang Ke. We have no way of knowing Jiang Ke's subsequent life in the organization, but the details of Jiang Ke's use of Jiang Ke's moves when facing James (Chapter 93 James), his departure from the original sin copy (this copy is also very interesting, I can write about it in detail when I have time) to join the Divine Blessing Knights (Chapter 147 Agree), and his instinctive protection of Jiang Ke (Chapter 174 Fall), all these details can show the difference in Jiang Ke's heart towards Jiang Ke. As we mentioned earlier, Jiang Li never experienced fatherly love and motherly love when he was young, so in his opinion, Jiang Ke was saving him when he brought him into the organization and kept him away from his original family that he didn't want to face. Although Jiang Li has the characteristic of emotional isolation, people are not saints, and there are no absolutes. After Jiang Li saw Jiang Ke fall off the cliff, his first reaction was to save her. There is something akin to empathy. When Jiang Li was young, he could not express his love for his parents to his biological parents who hurt him. In his childhood memory, Jiang Ke saved him, and Jiang Ke's identity was similar to that of his parents who "loved" him. But we can also imagine that in this killer organization, there is no human kindness, so Jiang Li slowly grew into the character of "killer" Jiang Li. Childhood is a very special and important part of life. Through the above analysis, I really want to call everyone's attention to the importance of children's psychology. Your future child may not necessarily meet "Si Yufeng" who saves him or her in the future, so before he or she is born, we as parents must also consider whether our actions will affect him or her becoming "Jiang Li". Thanks to the author for letting me have the pleasure of meeting him! I will definitely write down all the copy analysis that interests me when I have time! The story of Jiang Li and Si Yufeng is definitely not over yet. I have been looking forward to the next book!
